Project Articles Needing Action

In December 2015, a front page list which is now called "Project Articles Needing Action" was created, starting with 5 rows (with 4 entries each). As of June 2024, it has 7 rows. These are, by statistics and/or editorial judgment, articles needing the most action right now.

Following are explanations of the action categories:

• Priority with Most Issues – These are priority articles (articles graded by quality/importance ranging from C/High to FA/Top) which have the most cleanup issues. Generally ordered by number of identified issues, descending. These are revised as cleanup issues are addressed or new cleanup issues are identified. The issue statistics these are based on are updated once weekly.
• Non-Priority with Most Issues – These articles are ones not meeting the priority criteria which have the most cleanup issues. Generally ordered by number of identified issues, descending. These are also revised as cleanup issues are addressed or new cleanup issues are identified. The issue statistics these are based on are updated once weekly.
• Popular Stubs – These are stub articles which have more views (presumably readers) than other stub articles in our project. Therefore, they should have a higher priority for expansion. Ordered by views, descending. These are revised as stubs are expanded/de-stubbed or the popularity (by views) of stub articles fluctuates. The popularity statistics these are based on are updated once monthly.
• Popular with Old Issues – These are well-viewed articles which have old cleanup issues (from 2013 or earlier). Ordered by views, descending. These are revised as old cleanup issues are addressed or the popularity statistics change.
• Missing Here – These are Louisville area-related subjects which seem to be the ones most needing an article. These are decided and ordered entirely by editorial judgment. These are revised as articles in the list are created or upon a realization of a more important subject that needs an article.

If any project participants want to join the editorial staff that selects the entries for these action items, please add your username in the list at this link.

Article development and project inclusion

Wikipedians and especially WikiProject Louisville participants are encouraged to create or edit any Louisville area-related articles (including articles about people from the Louisville area) that are (or should be) included in our project.

Please also help us ensure that Louisville area-related articles (new or old) are included in our project by adding the following project template to their talk pages if it's not there already:
{{WikiProject United States|class=|Louisville=yes|Louisville-importance=}}

The above yields:

Other ways you can help in the development of articles include:

• Creating new articles from suggestions, or suggesting articles to be created
• Expanding stub articles you can find in various stub categories (currently 2,391 stubs; see full list)
• Improving articles, by:
  • Addressing various requests from article's talk pages (e.g., to-do lists, photos/infoboxes/maps needed, immediate attention)
  • Cleaning up many kinds of issues
• Connecting our articles with links, categories, etc.
• Staying tuned to our project alerts when Wikipedia-wide attention is called to any of our articles. Examples include when an article is nominated to upgrade to good status or when an article is submitted for a deletion discussion.

What constitutes a Louisville area-related article

Per our goal and scope, WikiProject Louisville provides comprehensive coverage of notable subjects pertaining to the Louisville metropolitan area. But to decide what articles/pages to include can sometimes be a bit fuzzy. So following are aspects to look at in determining whether an article/page should be included in our project:

• Is the article in (or should be in) a category that descends from Category:Louisville metropolitan area, Category:Hardin County, Kentucky, Category:LaRue County, Kentucky or Category:Scott County, Indiana (combined what we're calling the Louisville area)?
  • Note 1: these categories (i.e., category pages) are themselves also included in the project.
  • Note 2: this aspect alone does not guarantee that an article/page should be included (see below).
• Is the subject clearly about the Louisville area, its history, its economy, its infrastructure, or its culture in some way?
• If the article covers a (usually Kentucky) statewide subject or is another broad subject:
  • Does the article include coverage of a Louisville area-related subject that is substantial and not just one of many like things?
• If the subject is a person:
  • Was the person born or raised* in the Louisville area? (*typically meaning "spent formative years")
  • Did the person maintain a significant period of residence in the Louisville area?
  • If they attended or played sports for, or was in the faculty, staff or administration of, a Louisville area college or university:
    • Did they attend, play or work for the school for at least two academic years, or barring that, did they graduate from the school?
      • If not, did they achieve anything notable for the college/university or win any major awards during their time here?
  • If they played sports for or managed a Louisville area professional sports team:
    • Did they play for a (usually historical) major league team based in Louisville?
    • If they played for a minor league, did they play for at least a significant portion of a season (they weren't in and out quickly) or in multiple seasons?
      • If not, did they achieve anything notable for the team during their time here?
    • Did they manage the team for at least two seasons?
• If the subject is a company or organization:
  • Was the company/org headquartered in the Louisville area for a significant period of time?
• If the subject is a product:
  • Was the product primarily or majorly manufactured or otherwise produced in the Louisville area?
• If the subject is a cultural or culinary thing:
  • Was the thing introduced (or maintains a reliably sourced claim for having been introduced) in the Louisville area?
• If the subject is an event:
  • Did the event take place in the Louisville area?
  • Did the event majorly involve a notable Louisville area subject (e.g. a championship game involving a Louisville Cardinals team)?
• If the article is a list, does it contain at least several subjects related to the Louisville area?
• If the page is a disambiguation page, does it contain two or more subjects related to the Louisville area?
• If the page is a redirect, does it represent a Louisville area subject and is:
  • a redirect "with possibilities" (i.e., it could reasonably become an article on its own)?
  • a redirect reflecting a hot search term thereby conducting a lot of traffic to a Louisville area-related article (e.g., Louisville)?
  • a redirect representing a key area topic that has been purposefully folded into a broader topic (e.g., Louisville Business First)?
• If the page is a template or file (usually image), does it represent a subject above determined to be included?
• Is it a WikiProject Louisville project page or subpage?

Note: Typically, any person, horse or other entity that has won a Louisville area race or contest is not included in our project unless it was an inaugural or otherwise very special event, or they have an otherwise strong connection to the area.

We continually assess our articles for quality and for importance to our project.

General assessment tasks

• If not already there, place the {{WikiProject United States|class=|Louisville=yes|Louisville-importance=}} banner on the talk pages of Louisville area-related articles and assess according to our instructions.
• Assess the quality of Louisville area-related articles that aren't currently assessed (0).
• Assign the project importance of Louisville-area related articles that aren't currently assigned (0).
• Change the class or importance if the quality level changes or importance to our project changes.

Article improvement

Addressing article requests

On the talk pages of articles, Wikipedians can request immediate attention, as well as particular things to add to an article, such as images, infoboxes, maps, or various content additions/changes from a to-do list..Go to the "Louisville articles needing attention" category (and subcategories) to see which articles need various kinds of attention. Addressing these matters is also a great way to contribute.

Article cleanup

There are many approaches to cleaning up Wikipedia articles, and cleanup activity on our included articles is a great way to contribute to our project. Obviously, issues such as typos, incorrect grammar and ambiguous links can be corrected manually, but many tools exist to aid in this effort.

A list of articles needing cleanup associated with this project is available. See also the tool's wiki page and the index of WikiProjects.

In addition, various cleanup issues* for our project (totaling 3,309 as of June 25, 2024) are scooped up by a weekly-run automatic process and are listed by cleanup category and alphabetically by article title (sortable by assessment class or project importance, or number of issues in the alphabetic list) by for your convenience. For example, if you just want to work on articles with cite date errors, the "by cleanup category" list has those sorted out for you.

For cleanup issues identified over a decade ago and are still yet to be addressed, check out our list of articles with old issues.

*Note: these lists don't comprise all possible cleanup issues in articles—just the ones that have been tagged by editors or internal processes (and thus listed in hidden categories). Issues like spacing, typos, grammar, readability, and minor structural nits will normally not be included—sometimes you just have to read an article or review its wiki source to see where its problems lie.

Helpful cleanup hints

1. In your Preferences (Appearance/Advanced options), check "Show hidden categories" so you can see the cleanup categories that articles and other pages are included in.
2. Regarding citation-related issues, include the following in your common.css (style file) so that these issues will be clearly visible in every article:
   .citation-comment {display: inline !important;} /* show all Citation Style 1 error messages */
3. To fix articles listed in the category "Pages using duplicate arguments in template calls", use the FindArgDups script.
4. To address "Orphaned" articles, see WP:Orphan.
5. To address articles listed in the category "Notability unclear", you basically have two, maybe three choices: 1) Find more reliable, independent sources to bolster the article subject's notability; or 2) if there's no hope for establishing the article subject's notability, submit the article for Deletion. However, sometimes there is a middle ground, 3) merging the article's cited content into an established, clearly notable subject, and then converting the problematic article into a redirect.

Change patrol

To ensure that all changes to Louisville area-related pages are sound, and any vandalism reverted, here are "recent changes" pages to aid in that endeavor:

• ALL PROJECT PAGES: Recent changes to all pages included in WikiProject Louisville, along with associated talk pages (page list updated by a bot on June 26, 2024)
  • ALL PROJECT ARTICLES: Just the articles in the above (mainspace pages minus redirects and disambiguation pages) and no associated talk pages, in case you don't care about changes to anything else
  • ALL PROJECT CATEGORIES: Just the categories in the above (no associated talk pages), including page categorizations (view what pages are added to or removed from our included categories)
  • ALL PROJECT TALK: Just the talk pages in the above
• POPULAR ARTICLES: Recent changes to the top 1,000 most viewed articles included in WikiProject Louisville (page list updated June 10, 2024)

• MAIN ARTICLE LINKS: Recent changes to all pages linked to from the Louisville, Kentucky article

Collaboration

Whenever you get stuck while working on an article, there are several approaches available for you:

• Ask questions at the Help desk, Reference desk, or if you're new to Wikipedia, the Teahouse.
• Ask on the article's talk page, especially if the article has many watchers.
• Look in the article's history to find an editor who is/was a major contributor, and ask for their thoughts or assistance on their user talk page, or ping them from the article's talk page.
• Given the article is included in our project, ask on our project talk page.
• If other WikiProjects cover the article, ask on their project talk page. (In some cases, it may even be useful to boldly add the article to other applicable WikiProjects, understanding that sometimes they will disagree with the addition.)
• Seek site-wide peer review.

Connecting our articles (links, categories, etc.)

Since we want the world to discover our work and all that is notable about the Louisville metro area, we should continuously connect Louisville area-related articles internally and externally. More specifically, we should: Zdroj:https://en.wikipedia.org?pojem=Wikipedia:WikiProject_Louisville/Tasks
